One day I was in the store bought home appliances, and more precisely DVD player. When I brought home, found that the DVD player was destroyed (defective?). And I immediately went to the store to return, and the sellers demanded from me a check, a receipt. In general, they don’t want to deal with my complain. Then I was sent to the administrator to work with clients. I said that I would be grateful if your company will send me a replacement as soon as possible. Store didn’t replace the equipment, as there was no guarantee. And now I no longer buy goods from this store.

Talk about a film which made you cry, laugh a lot or you’ve seen several times. (Gram: Passives. Key words: directed by, set in, based on, plot, shot on location, to be definitely at the top).

The film “Time” is set in 2011 in USA. This film was directed by Andrew Niccol. The film was shot in the city centre, which is now visited by more than a one million tourists and students every year. The movie famous in the world. However, It is not based on a book. The genre of the film is action , fiction silent and thriller.

I think the movie amazing plot. The film is about man and woman, who want to change the world. They fight with injustice. Because there are people should earn time. For earning time the time they should have amount of money. It means that poor people die, rich people buy the time and continue to live.

Moreover, the film had unforgettable soundtrack also magnificentand dramatic scenery.

In conclusion, this film made me cry. Because, if in future new technologies will develop, it can be realize. I advise to watch this film, because it can change your world look.
